Re: [SHR-testing] problem connecting to pc, and solution
if is is just for ssh, you can just affect them different names. It is how i proceed : one way to have an easier life when playing with multple system is to create an entry in /etc/host like this : 192.168.0.202 om shr shr2 then ssh r...@om or s...@shr instead of using s...@192.168.0.202 then you will have a different key for each system ssh might complaint about 192.168.0.202 but won't prevent connection if you just confirm it is ok Philippe 2009/4/19 Sander van Grieken > > On Sunday 19 April 2009 18:52:29 Previdi Roberto wrote: > > - if i set a different mac address for each one of my om > > distributions, could i assign a different ip address (from my pc > > side), in order to not have all the ssh key conflicts each time i > > reflash or just change my fr running distribution? i think it's matter > > of writing some configuration rules for ifconfig, but is there some > > example around? > > Why fiddle with the MAC address if you can give each distro a different IP > address directly, in /etc/network/interfaces on the phone. > > grtz, > Sander > > > ___ > Openmoko community mailing list > community@lists.openmoko.org > http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Why fiddle with the MAC address if you can give each distro a different IP address directly, in /etc/network/interfaces on the phone. grtz, Sander ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
[SHR-testing] problem connecting to pc, and solution
hello. after having upgraded the shr-testing (reflash, wifi-> opkg update, opkg upgrade) i wasn't able to connect to my pc, because the g_ether module insisted to use his default 00:1f mac address, and when connecting to pc the pc udev assigned to him an ethX interface name instead of usbX, disabling all the iptables and ifconfig configured settings. the solution i found was to give some options to the g_ether module, like this: r...@om-gta02 ~ $ touch /etc/modprobe.d/options r...@om-gta02 ~ $ echo "options g_ether host_addr=32:99:58:ea:d0:49 dev_addr=32:99:58:ea:d0:50" >> /etc/modprobe.d/options (it's 2 lines, the second one will probably appears truncated in the email) (i think you can invent the mac addresses by your fantasy, i just think they should be different, and don't start with 00. anyway, these 2 works for me) so, if anybody is having the same probem, you know what to do. now some questions to somebody more expert: - i tried to put this "options" file in /etc/modutils/ and executed update-modules, but at the reboot the module completely ignored it. after executing update-modules i found the /etc/modules.conf file empty (just a "this file is generated..." comment at start) and another /etc/modules file with the merged lines from /etc/modutils, and with my options too. still, this file seems not to be used at the module loading time. My question is: can /etc/modutils/*, /etc/modules.conf and /etc/modules altogether be removed so people don't lose hours trying to use them? or maybe they must be used in a way i didn't understand? - if i set a different mac address for each one of my om distributions, could i assign a different ip address (from my pc side), in order to not have all the ssh key conflicts each time i reflash or just change my fr running distribution? i think it's matter of writing some configuration rules for ifconfig, but is there some example around? btw, many compliments to all the developers of shr and fso, this is getting very good! -- roby ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
